A report just compiled by Third
Assistant Postmaster-General Barber
shows that 107,616,000 postal cards
were sold during the fiscal jear which
endted June 30 last, against 91,079,000
issued for the year which ended June
30, 1874. The increase, which is
equivalent to about 18 1-6 per cent,
seems to indicate that the postal cards
arc growing in popular favor. The val
ue of the issue of ordinary postage
stamps during the year was $18,271,-
179 an increase of $966,237 over the
previous year. The issue of newspapers
and periodical postage stamps amounted
to $Bl5, 902 48; of ordinary stamped
envelops and wrappers to $4,124,477-
34, an increase of $242,284, 58; of
postal cards, $1,076, 160. The total
issues for sale to the public was $24,-
288,018,81. an increase of $2,319,794
05 over the last fiscal year. The sale
ot official postage stamps for the fiscal
year a mounted to $834,970 25, a de
crease of $580,874 95 since June 30,

522 IS, an increase of $1,065 52 over
tho year 1874.
A RioT occurred at Rheine, a town
in Munster, Prussia, a few days since.
After the police had ordered the inhab
itants to remove the flags placed out
. ide '.heir houses as an Uitramontane
dem ons (■ration, one on the church tow
er remained, the priests alleging that
they could not find anybody to take it
down. In the evening the church
p rcli and the cruciGx near it were il
iuminated. This attracted a large
crowd, who began singing hymns and
giving cheers for the Pope. At 11
o’clock the Burgomaster read the Riot
act, and summoned the mob to disperse,
but ho was hustled, thrown down and
received five stabs in the back. A po
liceman who was with him was also ill
used. Some Post Office employees sue
ceeded in reaching him, and carried
him to a hotel, which was thereuron
pelted with paving stones to an accom
paniment of hytuM, cheers for the Pope,
and threats against non-CatholicS. It
was not till after midnight that the
priests at the entreaty of the local mag
istrate, appeared on the scene and in
duced the mob to disperse.
Tiie paddle wheels of a large steamer
on tho St. John river, in Florida, stop
ped suddenly, the other night, and then
cauie crash arter crash in the wood
work. A panic followed, everybody
rolling out of bunk and rushing for the
deck, and it was soon ascertained that
a big alligator had become entangled in
the revolving wheel, where he was not
enjoying life.
“ That nr* patch of ground’s mem’ri
ble,” said an Omaha man, pointing to
u gave all by itself outside of the town.
“ I reckin you’ll know that, stranger,
when you see it ug’in. The ockpant
of that was the fust man liorrus Gree
i-.y ever told to git West—likewise he
vas hong far Sealin’ a mewl.”
The Sacrifice of* Human Life.
Ihe sacrifice of human life during
the past six months has been simply ap
palling, as will be shown by the statis
tics which we print below. In making
up this record we have made use only
of the great disasters which have been
reported by telegraph. The minor cas
ualties it is impossible to estimate.—
Epidemics have been the most severe
destroyers of life, although neither the
cholera nor the plague have ravaged
any part of the world. In the Fiji Is
lands alone, 50,000 people have per
ished by measles and other diseases in
troduced since the annexation to Great
Britain. This unusual fatality, from a
comparatively innocuous disease, the
London limes explains upon the ground
that the European nations have become
hardened to it, and that it was destruc
tive to these islanders because they
Mere having it the first time, and were
not accustomed to this boon of British
civilization. Earthquakes come second
in the list of destroying elements, hav
ing killed over 20,000 people. We
have no record of the loss of life by
the recent earthquakes and accompany
ing volcanic disturbances in Iceland,
but there have been four other earth
quakes from which the loss of life has
been given approximately as follows :
In New Grenada. 16,000 ; in Asia Mi
nor, 2,000 ; in the Loyalty Islands,
where the earthquake was accompanied
by a terrible tidal-wave, 2,000; and at
San Cristobal, Mexico, 70. A famine
in Asia Minor during the early part
of the year swept off 20.000 people
before relief could reach the afflicted
region. Floods come next in the disas
trous catalogue, their ravages having
been most exclusively confined to Eu
rope. The overflow of the Garonne, in
the Southern of France, destroyed
three thousand lives, and that of the
Danube, in Pesth, six hundred. While
our own country was severely ratfanged
by floods during the spring, especially
in the Southwest and in Pennsylvania,
their destruction was confined to prop
erty. We can find no evidence that
more than six lives were lost by them,
although many of them were very sud*
den and swept everything before them,
being accompanied, as they were, with
huge masses of ice. The marine dis
asters of the past six months Lave been
peculiarly disf motive of life. Fifty
four vessels nearly all of them steamers,
have gone down taking with them 1,-
303 persons the most prominent of
which are the following : The Schiller,
off the Scilly Islands, 350 ; the Gotten
berg, off the Australian coast, 166 ;
the Cadiz, 62; the Fu Sing, a Chinese
steamer, 50 ; the American ship Violet
ta, 42; the Vicksburg, collision with
icebergs. 40 ; the Thornabia, 29 ; the
Cortes, 26 ; the George Batters, 21 ;
the Bride, Berar, Berlin (Japanese),
and the Alice, 20 each and the Lock
nagar, 16. There have been other se
vere disasters on South American Chi
nese and English coasts, which involv
ed a serious loss of life, but it is impos
sible to estimate them, as the telegraph
furnishes no record. The season has
been unusually characterized by torna
does and hurricanes, and of these have
been eighteen which have been accom
panied by loss of life, as follows : In
Hong Kong, 500; Georgia. 317 ; Chili,
60; Louisiana, 20 ; France, 11 ; Mis
souri, 6; Mississippi, 11; Arkansas,
5; Michigan, 3; Wisconsin, 3; Illi
nois, 3; South Carolina, 2; and Kan
sas, 1 ; total, 944. Thirty five fires
have been reported, by which 304 lives
have been sacrificed. Only three of
these have been accompanied by a heavy
loss of life, being the burning of a
match factory at Gottenberg, Sweden,
(50); steamers at New Orleans, (75);
and the recent Holyoke, Massachusetts,
church disaster, (92.) Explosions,
mainly in this country, have killed 207
people, as follows: Fire-damp, 122;
boilers, 48 ; gunpowder, 21 ; fireworks,
9; nitro-glycerine, 4; chemicals, 3. —
The railroads, in this country, at least,
have not been so prolific in the destruc
tion of of life as usual. Although 47
disasters have been reported, but 43
people have been killed, the largest
number in any single disaster being but
7- The list of injured, however, foots
up 284 Last in the list comes snow
slides. which have buried 56. The to
tal list foots up as follows ;
Epidemics 50,000
Earthquakes 20,000
Famine 20,000
Floods , 3,606
Marine disasters., 1,303
Tornadoes 944
Fires 944
Explosions 207
Snow-slides 56
Railroads 43
Total 96,533
Large as these figures seem, it must
be remembered that thej represent but
a small percentage of the destruction of
human life from other than natural
causes. They are only the large disas
ters which have been deemed of suffici
ent interest to telegraph as items of
public importance. They do not in
clude the thousands of minor disasters
constantly occurring all over the world,
which would swell the aggregate far up
into the thousands, if not into the mill
ions. If there were added to these the
immense number taken off by suicide,
murder, war, and massacre, and other
violent forms of death which it is impos
sible to estimate, the result would ee
frightful to contemplate. Increasing
this still further by the number who
die from sickness, it does not seem that
the world will be overcrowded with pop
ulation.

In Philadelphia, for carrying priso
ners, they use vehicles which are like
omnibuses without windows or other
means of ventilation. Filled with pas
sengers and the door closed tight, there
is no access to light or air. A few days
ago a number of convicts were crowded
into one of them for a long ride from a
police ourt to a prison in a suburb. —
The heat in the open air was 89 in the
shade. The ride lasted for four hours.
The temperature within the van must
have been 125, and the air vitiated be
sides by the fetid breath of drunkards
At the end of the journey ouo of the
convicts was found to have been stifled.

The Trans Format ion of Athens.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
T-ibune says :
The dawn was just breaking as we
were abreast the Island of Elgina, and
as the steamer bore across the gulf the
Acropolis of Athens, With the Parthen
on on its brow, gleaming like a diadem,
came full in view. Before I was aware
of its vicinity we had rounded the low
point on which stands the tomb of The
mistocles and had dropped anchor iu
the harbor of the Piraeus. Nothing
could be more striking than the contrast
between the aspect of this harbor on
my first and present visit. Then it
was choked up to such a degree with
mud that only fishing vessels of light
draught could enter it; now English
ard French ircn-clad frigates, drawing
twenty-four feet and more of water,
were riding at anchor a few feet from
shore. Then a dozen or so of huts
rather than houses formed the town
Piraeus, now a town of some 7,000
inhabitants, regularly laid out with
broad quays planted with trees, hand
some public buildings and private res
idences. iron founderies, ship3 T ards, etc.,
had taken its place. Everywheoe were
to be seen the signs of active life
and commercial enterprise. Instead of
being obliged to pass an hour on the
road before reaching Athens, half suf
focated with dust, and to run the gaunt
let of the bands of klephti (brigands)
that infested it, we were carried to the
capital over a railroad in some fifteen
minutes.
Gen. Israel Putnam not only rebell
ed against the English, but opposed
their style of spelling. He used to
write “enemy” with a big E, and spell
it “Erumy.” Once he wrote to George
Washington: “ Dear Gen I: lam
extremely Sorry to hear that you have
been unfortunately Obliged to retire
and leave Gen’l How in possession of
the Ground. I hope providence will
yet So smile on your efforts, tvhicn I
know will be to your utmost, as to put
Gen’l How & his force in your power.”
